My real estate agent thinks he's nuts, but she has more experience with conventional loans than DSCR. 

What resources do you use to do market analysis and what are the nuts and bolts of using those resources to actually narrow down a location?

-----I am curious about the general feelings out there because I can be a bit hypervigilant, and posts like these drive me nuts. 

I know we are pushing back on the last 20 houses I have in Canby and agents are going nuts..

Purchase price: $274,995 Cash invested: $81,011 One-stop real estate investment, using a company that provides soup-to-nuts service (sales, closing, funding, property management).

If you are a busy W-2 employee or running a company, Home Team Vacation Rentals can take care of all the nuts and bults of purchasing, setting up, and managing a STR.

Plus, the sync issues with financial institutions drive me nuts.

For one, the rental income tends to be lower than with short-term stays due to the necessary discounts, yet we still face most of the usual costs, aside from savings on cleaning and supplies.

Investors in general, tend to be more active at the end of the year from what I noticed.

Personally, I find BTRs to be more predictable with fewer ongoing maintenance issues, and they tend to attract high-quality tenants.
